It's not clear to me if Sachs has been formally nominated. Several governments have said "we nominate Sachs," but's it's not clear if they have done so "formally," as described in the World Bank's (new) procedures.
see: Kenya nominates Sachs? http://www.worldbankpresident.org/jesse-griffiths/candidates/kenya-nominates-sachs Like Neo using his eyes for the first time, there's never been a real process before. It was always US pick and Europe goes along, in exchange for the US accepting European pick for the IMF. Now, on paper, there's a real process. Whether this actual process is carried out in a meaningful way depends if there are real candidates and the countries push. So far Sachs is the only "announced candidate," besides whomever the US is going to nominate.
